Caring Democracy : Markets, Equality, and Justice
A rethinking of American democracy that puts caring responsibilities at the centerAmericans now face a caring deficit: there are simply too many demands on people’s time for us to care adequately for our children, elderly people, and ourselves.At the same time, political involvement in the United States is at an all-time low, and although political life should help us to care better, people see caring as unsupported by public life and deem the concerns of politics as remote from their lives.Caring Democracy argues that we need to rethink American democracy, as well as our fundamental values and commitments, from a caring perspective.What it means to be a citizen is to be someone who takes up the challenge: how should we best allocate care responsibilities in society?Joan Tronto argues that we need to look again at how gender, race, class, and market forces misallocate caring responsibilities and think about freedom and equality from the standpoint of making caring more just.The idea that production and economic life are the most important political and human concerns ignores the reality that caring, for ourselves and others, should be the highest value that shapes how we view the economy, politics, and institutions such as schools and the family.Care is at the center of our human lives, but Tronto argues it is currently too far removed from the concerns of politics.Caring Democracy traces the reasons for this disconnection and argues for the need to make care, not economics, the central concern of democratic political life.

Play and Social Justice : Equity, Advocacy, and Opportunity
The importance of play for healthy development is undeniable.Aspects of play have been linked to the development of social skills, health and fitness, motivation, curiosity, innovation, imagination, and problem solving.Both theory and research suggest that play of various types is critical for healthy development and that playfulness is an important quality across the life span.However, opportunities to play and quality of play facilities in schools, after-school programs, childcare centers, community parks, and museums are not equitable by race, socio-economic status, and ability. And racial profiling, immigrant status, illness, and incarceration interfere with child’s play.The first section of the book defines play and social justice and describes disparities in play opportunities in childcare, schools, and communities as well as inequities in how play is interpreted.The next section describes pre-school, elementary, high school, and university programs that use play to liberate, teach, and build community as well as after-school, hospital, and community programs that help to level the playing field of opportunity.The final part of the book discusses ways to ameliorate inequities through research and advocacy.Four research methods are described that are useful for conducting studies on the amount of play children experience, attitudes toward play, and the effect of play on other variables.Finally, a child, a parent, and a teacher describe ways they tried to obtain more recess, using various methods of advocacy.The appendix provides resources indispensable for those convinced that play for all is indeed a social justice issue worthy of advocacy.

G. A. Cohen : Liberty, Justice and Equality
G. A. Cohen was one of the towering political philosophers of the late twentieth and early twenty-first centuries.His intellectual career was unusually wide-ranging, and he was celebrated internationally not only for his penetrating ideas about liberty, justice and equality, but also for his method, a highly original and influential combination of analytical philosophy and Marxism. Christine Sypnowich guides readers through the rich body of Cohen’s work.By identifying five paradoxes in his thought, she explores the origins of his interest in analytical philosophy, his engagement with the ideas of right-wing libertarianism, his critique of John Rawls’s work, his late-career turn to conservatism, and the tension between his preoccupation with individual responsibility and the idea of a socialist ethos.Sypnowich acknowledges the strengths of Cohen’s positions as well as their tensions and flaws, and presents him as a thinker of startling insight. This compelling introduction is a go-to resource for students and scholars of modern political philosophy.

What is your view on the meaning of justice?
Justice, to me, means fairness and equality for all individuals. It is about ensuring that everyone is treated with respect and given the same opportunities, regardless of their background or circumstances. Justice also involves holding individuals and institutions accountable for their actions and ensuring that they are held to the same standards as everyone else. Ultimately, justice is about creating a society where everyone has the chance to thrive and live a fulfilling life.

"Equality before, but justice first?"
"Equality before, but justice first" suggests that while equality is important, it should not come at the expense of justice. This phrase emphasizes the need to address systemic injustices and inequalities in order to achieve true equality. It implies that simply treating everyone the same does not necessarily address the underlying issues of discrimination and oppression. Instead, it calls for prioritizing justice in order to create a more equitable society for all.

Which view do you prefer for questions: the list view or the tile view?
I prefer the list view for questions because it allows me to see more questions at once and quickly scan through them to find the one I want to answer. The list view provides a more efficient way to navigate through a large number of questions and helps me stay organized. Additionally, the list view allows for easier sorting and filtering of questions based on different criteria.

The Feminist Legislation Project : Rewriting Laws for Gender-Based Justice
In this book, leading law academics along with lawyers, activists and others demonstrate what legislation could look like if its concern was to create justice for women. Each chapter contains a short piece of legislation – proposed in order to address a contemporary legal problem from a feminist perspective.These range across criminal law (sexual offences, Indigenous women’s experiences of criminal law, laws in relation to forced marriage, modern slavery, childcare and sentencing), civil law (aged care and housing rights, regulating the gig economy; surrogacy, gender equity in the construction industry) and constitutional law (human rights legislation, reimagining parliaments where laws are made for the benefit of women).The proposed laws are, moreover, drafted with feedback from a senior parliamentary draftsperson (providing guidance to contributors in a personal capacity), to ensure conformity with legislative rigour, as well as accompanied by an explanation of their reasons and their aims.Although the legislation is Australian-based, the issues raised by each are recognisably global, and are reflected in the legislation of most other nations. This first feminist legislation project will appeal to scholars of feminist legal studies, gender and the law, gender studies and others studying or working in relevant legal areas.

What is Kant's view of the conscience as an inner court of justice?
Kant's view of the conscience as an inner court of justice is that it serves as a moral compass, guiding individuals in making ethical decisions. He believed that the conscience is a faculty of reason that judges our actions and determines whether they are in accordance with moral law. Kant emphasized the importance of individuals listening to their conscience and acting in accordance with their moral duty, rather than being swayed by external influences or personal desires. He saw the conscience as a source of moral authority, holding individuals accountable for their actions and serving as a means of self-regulation.

It focuses on ensuring that everyone has the same access to resources and opportunities, regardless of their background or circumstances. While justice emphasizes fairness and impartiality, equality emphasizes equal treatment and access to resources.

Is my view sexist?
It's important to reflect on your beliefs and attitudes to determine if they are rooted in sexism. Consider whether your view perpetuates stereotypes, discriminates against a particular gender, or limits opportunities based on gender. Seek feedback from others, especially those who may be impacted by your view, and be open to learning and growing from their perspectives. It's also helpful to educate yourself on gender equality and challenge any biases you may hold.
